Your post has caused FEMA and Washington DC to authorize 500 truckloads of tissue so the Bama things can dry their eyes.
Nothing negative can ever ever be said against the Mulligumpneck things, it was in the Bible you know.

Who else besides TAMU do we lose to? And I'm betting we're a favorite to beat TAMU. Odds are for at least an 11-1 season again.


Gumps gonna GUMP. Yeah it's impossible for a Miles, coached team to win in BDS. he is only 3-1 in BDS.

This is revision at its worst. Back in August everyone on the SECR was saying Alabama had no chance of repeating because of the difficulty of their schedule. LSU was supposed to have the softer schedule going into 2012. Look up last year's posts, it's all there. Then...something happened:


bullshite. Who thought their schedule was hard? You played Michigan and @ LSU. Those are the only tough games from te preseason. People thought Bama wouldn't repeat because the loss of experience and talent.

REGARDLESS. BAMA IS CHAMPS. BAMA's RUN FROM 08- PRESENT( IMO WILL CONTINUE) IS ONE OF THE BEST RUNS IN CFB HISTORY. I could argue it's # 1 with the strength of the SEC and parity in cfb

If I recall right.When Bama had all or most of the SECW teams with bye weeks before.Where was the outcry of fairness from our fellow SEC brethren?
Maybe the"bridge cycle" was kinda a wink and a nod payback to Bama for all the trouble?

Either way there are some butthurt corndogs up in here.

Every NC is the same. LSU won with 2 loses. UT won because a player accidentally touched the ball to the ground. Your point is valid but silly.

Exactly. Arkansas was a top 10 preseason team, as was Michigan. Auburn was a top 25 team in the Coaches' poll, and Missouri was barely out of the top 25 at the beginning of the season. Florida was ranked but most people mocked their ranking and thought they were over-rated based on the previous year's results. If you look at the preseason SOS rankings, you will find that most people ranked Alabama's SOS ahead of LSU's.

No LSU fan EVER complains about the SOS for their team in 2007 when they won their National Championship.

At the end of the year, the 2 loss LSU tigers had an SOS of 11 according to Sagarin, which includes their win in the BCS.

Alabama's final Sagarin SOS rankings by year:

2009 - 2 (LSU = 5)
2011 - 15 (LSU =7)
2012 - 19 (LSU = 15)

In 2008 Alabama's SOS was 29 (LSU's was 33)
In 2010, Alabama's was 14, LSU's was 15. Auburn's was 13.

If you ever win a NC you have to catch a break. Bama has caught breaks in every year they have won.
2009 blocked game winning tn fg
2011 Oklahoma st loses to 6-6 Iowa state
2012 Kansas St and Oregon lose week after Bama.

LSU caught breaks in 2007, Florida in 2008, and Auburn in 2010.

One thing I am proud of though is that Bama has been fairly dominate in the BCS game each year they made it there!

If if's and butts were candy and nuts, maybe Alabama wouldn't be 61-7 since the beginning of the '08 season........with 3 crystal footballs ......with room on the shelf for more

The crying from Bama fans was far worse than anything LSU has whined about. It's funny that when Bama whines, rules get changed.

Wow. Really? Arky and Mizz was thought to be good? From who? Why can't Bama fans just admit that they have had an easy schedule the last two years. It doesn't change anything.

Arkansas was a preseason Top 10 team so someone obviously thought they were going to be good.

Also…as bad as that team was they still gave you a run for your money in that last game.

USC Trojans were preseason number 1. Notre dame was #1 too. Anyone that actually knows football knew JLS was gonna run that team into the dirt.

I think the most impressive thing is their ability to continue to win these close games and only lose 1 a year.

Something UF and LSU weren't able to do in their past successes of the 90s and 00s.
